Dog gets his owner help by ushering cops to the crash site

A German Shepherd named Tinsley first thought to be a lost dog, successfully led New Hampshire state police to the site of its owner’s rollover crash.

Both the vehicle’s occupants were seriously hurt, but thanks to Tinsley’s dogged efforts they quickly received medical assistance once officers discovered the truck, which went off the road near a Vermont interstate junction.

“The dog was trying to show them something. He kept trying to get away from them but didn’t run away totally,” said Lt. Daniel Baldassarre of the New Hampshire State Police. 

“It was kind of, ‘Follow me. Follow me.’ And they did that and you know, to their surprise to see the guardrail damaged and to look down to where the dog is looking at, it’s just, they were almost in disbelief,” he said.

A New Hampshire state trooper and police from the nearby city of Lebanon responded to the crash site, just across the state line in Vermont.

There were no further details on the condition of those injured in the single-vehicle crash.
